“Get in the carriage,” he said.
Jiang Ning nodded, turned and looked at her father, mother, and brother.
“Father, Mother, Third Brother, I’m leaving.”
Jiang Ruobai and Jiang Yi, as men, managed to keep their emotions in check, but Lin Zizi couldn’t help her tears.
“Your leg hasn’t fully healed yet, don’t walk all the time, rest more,” she advised earnestly, “You are our Jiang family’s legitimate daughter, no matter what grievances you suffer, you don’t have to endure them.”
“I know, mother, don’t cry,” Jiang Ning wiped her tears, “It’s very close to the pce, just a quarter of an hour’s ride by carriage. If you miss me, you cane and see me in the pce, and I cane home whenever I want.”
“Foolish child, once you enter the pce, can you reallye back whenever you want?”
Jiang Ning turned her head and asked Li Hongyuan, “Can I not leave once I enter the pce?”
“… Of course you can,” Li Hongyuan smiled, “Although the pce is not as free as the Prince of Yu’s residence, it’s not as if you can’t leave.”
“I’ve heard that some of the emperor’s concubines entered the pce at fifteen and haven’t left for twenty or thirty years.”
“I am not Emperor Father, and you are not those concubines,” Li Hongyuan said, “In fact, there are no rules in the pce that forbid concubines from leaving. It all depends on Emperor Father’s decision.”
“That makes sense. I hope you’ll always remember what you’ve said.”
“I won’t forget the words I’ve spoken to you,” he replied.
Jiang Yi patted Jiang Ning’s shoulder, “Remember, your family is your support, whenever you need help,e to your brother.”
“Thank you, brother.”
“Seventh Sister, this is what I made, it’s a bit rough, but good for the children to wear and y in,” Zhang Mujin handed over arge parcel.
Inside were children’s spring and summer clothes.
Jiang Ning smiled, “Sister-inw, don’t be modest, everyone knows how good your craftsmanship is.”
“Indeed, it’s definitely better than yours,” Jiang Yi added.
Jiang Ning chuckled.
Although the original host should have known these skills, and the evidence was the purse she sent to He Tang, she herself definitely didn’t know and hadn’t thought about learning those things.
Fortunately, everyone in the Jiang family understood her past of more than ten years of poverty, and despite her not knowing anything, they all epted her calmly.
She might not know those skills like zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but she did know how to cook.
Under her hands, the most fragrant earthly aromas could be found.
Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan came over together.
“In the future, you’ll be a nobledy in the pce, and it won’t be easy to see you again,” Jiang Yuan said.
Jiang Ning replied, “I heard Father is picking a family for you.”
“What decent family would want me, a concubine-born daughter like me,” she grumbled, “Anyway, I won’tpromise. If there isn’t a suitable family, I’d rather stay home and be an old maid.”
“Sixth Miss, did you hear that? Your Fifth Sister wants to be an old maid. If she doesn’t marry, it won’t be your turn.”
“Fifth Sister is just being stubborn, but deep down she’s really eager to get married,” Jiang Yan pursed her lips andughed.
Influenced by Jiang Ning, the usually timid and introverted Jiang Yan had be much more cheerful and dared to tease the Fifth Daughter.
Jiang Yuan snorted, “You’ve be bolder and bolder.”
But she wasn’t really angry.
Jiang Yan even took the initiative to hug Jiang Ning, “Seventh Sister, I’ll miss you.”
“Don’t make it sound like a life-and-death parting. It’s only a quarter of an hour’s journey back and forth. If you miss me, juste and see me in the pce,” Jiang Ningughed and let her go, turning and getting into the carriage.
The driver was from the Prince of Yu’s residence.
Jiang Ning was a little ufortable.
During this time, Gucheng had followed her in and out, and he had also driven the carriage when needed.
She leaned out the window to look outside.
Gucheng, dressed in a ck robe, rode his horse quietly behind the carriage..
